Michigan argues over who gets access to voters information

The ACLU has filed action against the Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land on behalf of the Green, Libertarian, and Reform parties of Michigan stating that it is illegal to allow on the two major parties in Michigan, the Democratic and Republican, access to voter information and responses, the Associated Press reported.  The parties are claiming that this violates the Constitution's first and fourteenth amendments by limiting the information to only two parties and by limiting the news media from reporting on matters of public interest that relate to party preference.  The injunction asks that the court declare the law unconstitutional.
